First, this arrangement allows the liver to regulate the distribution of nutrients to the rest of the body. This ensures a homeostasis thr9ugh recruitment of requisite biological pathways such as glycogenesis, oxidation, fatty acid synthesis, gluconeogenesis, etcetera.
Second, it allows the liver to remove toxic substances before the blood is circulated to the entire body. The liver is an effective detoxifier. It takes up toxic substances and converts them into harmless substances or makes sure they are released from the body.

The human MN blood type is determined by two codominant alleles, L(M) and L(N). The frequency of L(M) in Eskimos on a small Arct
tatiyna

Answer:

(a) Frequency of M = 0.64

    Frequency of N = 0.04

    Frequency of MN= 0.32

(b)  Expected frequencies of M = 0.648

     Expected frequencies of MN = 0.304

     Expected frequencies of N =  0.048

Explanation:

(a) If random mating takes place in the population, then  the expected frequencies are

f(L(M)) = p = 0.8

F(L(N)) = q

q= 1 - p

= 1 - 0.8

= 0.2

Frequency of M = p^2 = ( 0.8)^2 = 0.64

Frequency of N = q^2 = (1-p)^2 = (1 - 0.8)^2 = (0.2)^2 = 0.04

Frequency of MN = 2pq = 2 * 0.8 * 0.2 = 0.32

(b)

F = inbreeding coefficient = 0.05

f(L(M)L(M)) = p^2 + Fpq = (0.8)^2 + 0.05 * 0.8 * 0.2 = 0.648

f(L(M)L(N)) = 2 pq - 2Fpq = 2 * 0.8 * 0.2 - ( 2 * 0.05 * 0.8 * 0.2) = 0.304

f(L(N)L(N)) = q^2 + Fpq = (0.2)^2 + ( 0.05 * 0.8 * 0.2) = 0.048

What causes hyperpolarization of a neuronal membrane?.
zalisa [80]

The cause of hyperpolarization of a neuronal membrane is the flow of positive ions out of the opening channel of the neuronal membrane.

What is hyperpolarization?

This can be defined as when the membrane potential becomes more negative at a particular spot on the neuron’s membrane.

The cause of hyperpolarization is when the flow positive ions out of the opening channel of the neuronal membrane can cause hyperpolarization.

Examples: Opening of channels that lets K+ flows out of the neuronal membrane or let's CL- flow into the neuronal membrane can cause hyperpolarization.

Crossing over results in additional genetic variation during meiosis because it _____. Group of answer choices results in a grea
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

allows the recombination of genetic information

Explanation:

Crossing over is a process that occurs only in meiotic division in sexually reproducing organisms. It is the process whereby the segments of a gene are exchanged between the non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes.

Due to this crossing over process that occurs in prophase I of meiosis, the alleles of a chromosomes are recombined to ensure genetic diversity. Hence, according to this question, crossing over results in additional genetic variation during meiosis because it allows the recombination of genetic information.
